Permeable Aggregates
Permeable Aggregates
Product Description
Permeable Aggregate Base Course is a crushed rock product containing coarse fines. The fines allow the base course to pack down into a stable surface that provides drainage.
Permeable Aggregate Base Course is manufactured at Kapowsin Quarry from quarried basalt rock. It’s fractured and angular.
Product Applications
Permeable Aggregate Base Course is most often used along with Permeable Aggregate Top Course (8900-1 or 8900-3) to create free-draining foundations for synthetic turf sports fields. Permeable Aggregate Base Course can also be used as a base material underneath porous asphalt.
Similar Products
Permeable Aggregate Top Course (8900-1 or 8900-3) is typically placed on top of Permeable Aggregate Base Course in synthetic turf field installations.
If drainage isn’t a consideration, consider our more popular option, Crushed Surfacing Base Course (5990-1).
Helpful Tips
Permeable aggregates are typically used in commercial installations of artificial turf fields and porous pavements. Permeable aggregates aren’t appropriate for unpaved gravel driving surfaces.
About Permeable Aggregates
Permeable Aggregates are crushed rock products made for drainage applications. The word “permeable” means that water can pass through. “Aggregates” is a general construction term for mined products like rocks.
Sometimes you might hear the word “permeable” shortened to “perm” and the word “aggregates” shortened to “agg.” For example, “perm aggs,” “perm top,” etc.

Material Spreading
Prices quoted are for material delivery only. Drivers do their best to dump material evenly when requested. However, Washington Rock cannot guarantee that this will result in an even or desirable distribution of material. Customers must supply the equipment and labor necessary to finish projects.
Minimum Delivery Quantity
Our minimum order quantity for deliveries is 10 cubic yards. Do you need less than that? Find a local supplier here.
Product Description
Permeable Aggregate Top Course is a crushed rock product containing coarse fines. The fines allow the top course to pack down into a stable surface that provides drainage.
Permeable Aggregate Top Course is manufactured at Kapowsin Quarry from quarried basalt rock and at King Creek Pit from crushed streambed rock. It’s fractured and angular.
Product Applications
Permeable Aggregate Top Course is most often used as a leveling course on synthetic turf sports fields. This means that it’s used as the top layer of a free-draining foundation, with Permeable Aggregate Base Course (5900-1) directly underneath.
Permeable Aggregate Top Course can also be used as a base for pervious concrete or asphalt.

Product Description
Permeable Ballast is a crushed rock product that contains no fines. It’s manufactured at Kapowsin Quarry from quarried basalt rock. It’s fractured and angular.
Product Applications
Compared to standard ballast products, Permeable Ballast contains a larger proportion of smaller rock sizes, which allows it to pack together better while providing drainage.
Permeable Ballast can be used as a parking lot base and a porous foundation for pavement. It’s also used on roadway shoulders to provide structure while providing drainage for roadway runoff.
